a switching urging unit having a first urging member and a portion configured to press the rotation base due to an urging force of the first urging member to urge the door in an opening direction in the first rotation range and to switch an urging direction to a closing direction in the second rotation range; and
a closing suppression unit having a second urging member to suppress the urging force of the first urging member in the closing direction by the switching urging unit in the second rotation range, wherein
the second rotation range includes a first specified range and a second specified range, the first specified range being located on a completely-opened position side of the second specified range, the second specified range being located on a completely-closed position side of the first specified range, and
the closing suppression unit is provided not to suppress the urging force in the closing direction by the switching urging unit in the first specified range but to suppress the urging force in the closing direction by the switching urging unit in the second specified range.
2. The tubing pump according to claim 1 , wherein
the switching urging unit includes: a rod; a rod support portion that supports the rod rotatably with respect to the pump body and slidably in a longitudinal direction of the rod; and the first urging member that urges the rod to one side in the longitudinal direction thereof, and
the switching urging unit causes a front end side of the rod to be engaged with the door, so as to urge one side portion with a rotation center of the door being a boundary by one end side of the rod to perform an opening operation when the door is positioned in the first rotation range, and to rotate the rod in conjunction with a closing operation and urge another side portion with the rotation center of the door being the boundary by the one end side of the rod to perform the closing operation of the door when the closing operation is performed until the door is positioned in the second rotation range.
3. The tubing pump according to claim 2 , wherein
the switching urging unit is equipped with the first urging member on a portion of the rod on a front side of the rod support portion, and
the closing suppression unit is equipped with the second urging member for urging the rod to the rear on a portion of the rod on a rear side of the rod support portion.
4. The tubing pump according to claim 3 , wherein
the rod is urged to the front by the first urging member and urged to the rear by the second urging member in a range on a completely closed side of a specified angle within the second rotation range, and
a load of the second urging member is maintained to be constant by the rod that slides to the rear in a range on a completely opened side of the specified angle.
5. The tubing pump according to claim 1 , wherein
the pump mechanism includes a valve mechanism having a transmission member, a valve urging member, and a pressing piece, the pressing piece being configured to press and deform the attached tube by using an urging force of the valve urging member so as to close the valve mechanism, and
the transmission member is provided to be pressed by one end side of the rod that rotates in conjunction with the opening operation when the opening operation of the door is performed so as to open the valve mechanism when the fluid is transferred into the tube, and to separate from the one end side of the rod so as to maintain the valve mechanism in a closed state by the urging force of the valve urging member when the closing operation of the door is performed.
6. The tubing pump according to claim 2 , wherein
the pump mechanism includes a valve mechanism having a transmission member, a valve urging member, and a pressing piece, the pressing piece being configured to press and deform the attached tube by using an urging force of the valve urging member so as to close the valve mechanism, and
the transmission member is provided to be pressed by one end side of the rod that rotates in conjunction with the opening operation when the opening operation of the door is performed so as to open the valve mechanism when the fluid is transferred into the tube, and to separate from the one end side of the rod so as to maintain the valve mechanism in a closed state by the urging force of the valve urging member when the closing operation of the door is performed.
7. The tubing pump according to claim 3 , wherein
the pump mechanism includes a valve mechanism having a transmission member, a valve urging member, and a pressing piece, the pressing piece being configured to press and deform the attached tube by using an urging force of the valve urging member so as to close the valve mechanism, and
the transmission member is provided to be pressed by one end side of the rod that rotates in conjunction with the opening operation when the opening operation of the door is performed so as to open the valve mechanism when the fluid is transferred into the tube, and to separate from the one end side of the rod so as to maintain the valve mechanism in a closed state by the urging force of the valve urging member when the closing operation of the door is performed.
8. The tubing pump according to claim 4 , wherein
the pump mechanism includes a valve mechanism having a transmission member, a valve urging member, and a pressing piece, the pressing piece being configured to press and deform the attached tube by using an urging force of the valve urging member so as to close the valve mechanism, and
the transmission member is provided to be pressed by one end side of the rod that rotates in conjunction with the opening operation when the opening operation of the door is performed so as to open the valve mechanism when the fluid is transferred into the tube, and to separate from the one end side of the rod so as to maintain the valve mechanism in a closed state by the urging force of the valve urging member when the closing operation of the door is performed.
9. A tubing pump for transferring a fluid in a detachably attached tube by a pump mechanism, the tubing pump comprising: a pump body having a base to and from which the tube can be attached and detached; a door pivotally supported to be rotatable with respect to the pump body within a rotation range between a completely-closed position where the base is covered and a completely-opened position where the base is uncovered, the rotation range including a first rotation range and a second rotation range, the first rotation range being located at a completely opened position side of the second rotation range and the second rotation range being located at a completely-closed position side of the first rotation range; a switching urging unit for urging the door in an opening direction in the first rotation range and switching an urging direction to a closing direction in the second rotation range; and a closing suppression unit for suppressing an urging force in the closing direction by the switching urging unit in the second rotation range; wherein the second rotation range includes a first specified range and a second specified range, the first specified range being located on a completely-opened position side of the second specified range, the second specified range being located on a completely-closed position side of the first specified range, and the closing suppression unit is provided not to suppress the urging force in the closing direction by the switching urging unit in the first specified range but to suppress the urging force in the closing direction by the switching urging unit in the second specified range.
